Additional information

Dubnovellaunos ruled among the Cantii of southeast Britain during a period when cross-Channel contact with Gallo-Belgic tribes was reshaping local coinage traditions. His name — meaning roughly "world lord" or "deep lord" — appears on coins from both Kent and, later, Essex, suggesting either territorial expansion or a dynastic shift that remains disputed among scholars. The attribution of specific types to one Dubnovellaunos rather than a possible namesake ruler is a longstanding problem in Iron Age numismatics, and ABC 315 sits squarely within that unresolved debate.
